1  When Israel came out of Egypt, ♦︎
   the house of Jacob from a people of a strange tongue,
2  Judah became his sanctuary, ♦︎
   Israel his dominion.
3  The sea saw that, and fled; ♦︎
   Jordan was driven back.
4  The mountains skipped like rams, ♦︎
   the little hills like young sheep.
5  What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? ♦︎
   O Jordan, that you were driven back?
6  You mountains, that you skipped like rams, ♦︎
   you little hills like young sheep?
7  Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, ♦︎
   at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8  Who turns the hard rock into a pool of water, ♦︎
   the flint-stone into a springing well.

1  Alleluia.
      Praise the Lord from the heavens; ♦︎
   praise him in the heights.
2  Praise him, all you his angels; ♦︎
   praise him, all his host.
3  Praise him, sun and moon; ♦︎
   praise him, all you stars of light.
4  Praise him, heaven of heavens, ♦︎
   and you waters above the heavens.
5  Let them praise the name of the Lord, ♦︎
   for he commanded and they were created.
6  He made them fast for ever and ever; ♦︎
   he gave them a law which shall not pass away.
7  Praise the Lord from the earth, ♦︎
   you sea monsters and all deeps;
8  Fire and hail, snow and mist, ♦︎
   tempestuous wind, fulfilling his word;
9  Mountains and all hills, ♦︎
   fruit trees and all cedars;
10  Wild beasts and all cattle, ♦︎
   creeping things and birds on the wing;
11  Kings of the earth and all peoples, ♦︎
   princes and all rulers of the world;
12  Young men and women,
      old and young together; ♦︎
   let them praise the name of the Lord.
13  For his name only is exalted, ♦︎
   his splendour above earth and heaven.
14  He has raised up the horn of his people
      and praise for all his faithful servants, ♦︎
   the children of Israel, a people who are near him.
      Alleluia.
